Help answer this question below.

If one finds out they're terminally ill and have a limited time to live (i.e. a year or less), do they start to apply for a LOT of credit cards and loans, then spend and live lavishly while their time runs out?

    Ok... Great question and something I've lived through. My dad found out he had bone cancer and was only expected to live 3-5yrs. He did just that and lived to the extreme buying a pool table, new truck, motorcycle, 4-wheeler, home furnishings, and a bunch of junk. As he got sicker, he got to where he couldn't use some or most of what he had bought. The day came where he did pass away and that left only me behind. I got left with everything, except there was only one problem. He failed to think of getting life insurance before he got diagnosed and had ZERO coverage when he passed! I had to sell EVERYTHING to cover expenses he had incurred, funeral expenses, and so on. I wasn't completely responsible for those things but I did become responsible for his house which I could not pay for and had to sell. It was a very frustrating time for me and my husband. Bills and expenses kept popping up all over the place. So, have fun and enjoy life, just make sure your family members won't be stuck with the burden of your expenses. And above all... Get life insurance!!

    No, they wouldn't want to pass that debt on to family and would probably be thinking how to make the time they have more meaningful instead of buying junk. It seems to me they would look at happiness differently.
